This dessert is the final installment to my Mediterranean Medley class I taught last week at

The Culinaria which is inside Bakers & Cooks here in Ocala, FL.

I developed this recipe to try to emulate the flavors of baklava without all the work involved and without all the sweetness. I know, I know, I love Baklava like the rest of you and I know that the sweetness is what really makes it, but I was looking for a way to introduce people who may not have had baklava to the flavors, or give those who enjoy baklava another take on it. Plus, who doesnâ€™t love ice cream?! Those little banana bites I did a while back were so cute I just wanted to keep the theme of bite sized goodies that are so flavorful and delicious you only need a bite to feel satisfied! These are the perfect little dessert for a BBQ, movie or game night or anytime you feel a craving for a little something sweet!

Also, here is a little reminder - if you would like to participate in the FIRST monthly Leftover Queen Foodie Event - The Royal Foodie Joust, you have until midnight TONIGHT (EST US) to enter. Click here for more details!
